The right running shoes help you to keep running comfortable and injury-free. Cushioning, support and weight plays an important role. What the best women running shoes are, depends on your goals, preferences and running pattern.
Do you prefer to run at a slower and more relaxed pace? Then it's best to make yourself as comfortable as possible. The right amount of cushioning helps with that. The main guideline is to feel what you find pleasant. Generally, these running shoes are ideal for your longer runs or recovery jogs.
You might have heard of (over)pronation: the degree to which your foot rolls inward. With supportive running shoes, your feet are brought into their natural position during running, helping you avoid injuries.
Do you like to push the pace during training sessions, or do you often participate in races? Then opt for women's racing shoes. These will help you achieve speed to break records. Typically, these running shoes have a bit less cushioning but provide the necessary responsiveness to propel you forward. At Runners' lab, we offer various brands and types of racing shoes, both with and without carbon plates.
If you enjoy exploring nature and seeking out challenging paths, you'll need trail shoes for women. These provide extra grip on the terrain and a sturdier upper that protects your feet. Additionally, you can opt for waterproof running shoes.
Do you also value sustainability? We understand. Naturally, you want your shoes to last as long as possible. We certainly don't disagree with the rule that "your shoes need replacing after about 800 kilometers." However, there are ways to extend the lifespan of your shoes. Read our tips to make your running shoes last longer.
